Ingredients:
- 1 lb boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 lemon (zested and juiced)
- 1 cup mushrooms, sliced
- 1 cup asparagus, trimmed and cut into pieces
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon dried thyme
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 1/2 cup chicken broth
- Fresh parsley for garnish
Instructions:
- Start by heating the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Once hot, add the chicken breasts, seasoning them with salt, pepper, and thyme. Sear on both sides for about 5-7 minutes until they’re golden brown.
- Next, toss in the minced garlic, or your garlic-loving heart can get down and add more if you like it flavorful. Stir for about 30 seconds or until fragrant.
- Now it’s time to add the mushrooms and asparagus to the party. Cook them together with the chicken for about 4-5 minutes, letting the veggies soften up.
- Give that dish a zing by adding the lemon juice and zest to the skillet, then pour in the chicken broth. Bring it to a gentle simmer, cover the skillet, and let everything cook for another 10-15 minutes, or until the chicken is fully cooked through.
- Once it’s all good, serve it hot. Don’t forget to sprinkle some fresh parsley on top for that extra pop! This dish pairs well with rice or a light salad.
